Chuck bio


Chuck bio

Plab? Lug? Pugrador? I hear that you humans come up with fancy names for such designer mix-breeds as myself so here’s a starter list! I’m Chuck – a Black Labrador/Pug mix who is getting rave reviews around Paws & Co.!  For some silly reason, I ended up in a rural animal shelter but was lucky enough to be rescued before my time ran out…whew, that was a little too close for comfort!

I’m taking advantage of my stroke of luck by being my snuggly, happy-go-lucky, playful self!  I’m a 1-2 year-young pup who enjoys the company of all people and dogs (both big & small) that I’ve met! I’m an intelligent guy having quickly learned to use the dog door (I’m potty-trained!) as well as basic obedience commands.  I have yet to have a witnessed encounter with either a young child or cat but my foster parent thinks I’d be just fine around all beings so I’d love to arrange a meeting if any such types are part of your family.

I think I’ve about summed up why I’ll be the perfect 4-legged family member, don’t you?  There’s just one problem…we have yet to pick my designer breed name.  So please hurry and either email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website so we can start brainstorming today!

Hummus


Hummus bio

Are you looking for a scapegoat? Well, look no further!  I'm Hummus, a 2-year young Dachshund-mix gentleman who will gladly be your family's scapegoat - messes, toots, you-name-it and I'm happy to be blamed (as long as you'll allow me to spend my days playing, snuggling and living a carefree doggie life!)

I'm a sweet, young pup who loves all dogs and people I've met.  When I'm not fulfilling the "scapegoat" role in your family, I'll happily fulfill the "shadow" role as I love to be with others!  I have yet to have witnessed encounters with either young children or cats so if either of these types are part of your family, I'd like to meet them to make sure we all enjoy each other's company.  

After being saved from death-row in an animal shelter, I cannot wait to be your life-long companion, snuggle-bug and scapegoat!  Just email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website as I'm eagerly awaiting our meeting!

Kora bio

G'day, mate!  I'm Kora, a 2-year young 35-lb heeler mix, whose name means "companion" in Australia (which is where my heeler roots originate!)  I'm quite the optimistic shelia (that's what they call us young gals in Australia) who is searching for her Forever Family!

Heelers (also known as Australian Cattle Dogs) are working dogs - we were born and bred to herd.  Because of this, I will probably flourish in an active home (swimming & hiking, anyone?!?) that has time to really appreciate just how intelligent and faithful I am.  I'd do better living with older kids and adults as the lil' blokes don't seem to appreciate my special cattle dog talents.  I find this rather ironic as, in Australia, we often refer to children as ankle biters!  Oh well...I'll just have to find a family without any ankle biters on the loose!  Prancing around the house and playing with people are two favorite activities - I especially enjoy playing "fetch" and I can even fetch a ball and place it back oh-so-perfectly into your hand!  I enjoy most dogs I've met but have yet to meet any felines.  I'd appreciate the opportunity to meet all 4-legged potential family members before deciding whether we can be siblings.  I seem to be crate trained as well as housetrained (according to my foster mom) and, true to my intelligent breed, I have quickly picked up basic obedience commands.  Seems that I'll just fit right into your home, eh?

I sure hope you can find the time to come visit with me and appreciate my Australian prance in person!  Just email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website as I'm waiting right now!  Until then...Hooroo (that's slang for goodbye in Australia!)

Charlie

Hello there. I'm Charlie (short for Charles) and I hear millions of dollars have been placed on wagers about the name of the new British prince.  No need to think any further, folks, you should put your money on "His Royal Highness (HRH) Prince Charles of Cambridge".  And, if I happen to be incorrect, please feel free to use that prestigious name to refer to me - seems perfectly appropriate for such a handsome and distinguished 10-lb adolescent terrior mix, don't you agree?
 
Somehow, HRH Charlie (ie, me!) ended up in a Colorado shelter but my royalty was recongized and I was transferred to an amazing foster dad through Paws & Co. where I've been enjoying life to the fullest!  Not too much is known about my first 1-2 years on earth, but rest assured that I'm intelligent and I strive to be a perfect gentleman (I only potty outdoors and I'm quickly learning indoor manners).  I am fully aware of expectations of being a prince and I've been polite and friendly with all people and canines I've met.  I've yet to meet a feline friend or young human so, if a cat or children are part of your family, we should likely arrange a meeting before deciding if we could all cohabitate in a polite fashion.
 
If you'd like to experience snuggling with royalty (I LOVE snuggles - but don't tell anyone as I know us royals have a certain image to protect!), please call *** and ask for HRH Charlie! So long for now.

Wyatt


Wyatt bio
Yipee! Wahoo! Howdy folks! I’m Wyatt – a 9-month old ball of energy just waiting to bound my way into your family!  I might just be the friendliest pup y’all will ever lay eyes on…I LOVE all people I’ve met so far – and, although I have no experience living with kiddos, I’m sure interested in those lil’ buggers…
 No one is quite sure what flavor of mutt I am – possibly lab & boxer?!?  Really, though, I’m not sure why you humans even care as I’m 100% perfect & I hear y’all have DNA tests if y’all really feel the need to know…hee!hee!
 I made my way to Paws & Co. from a shelter in Lamar and am really enjoying my foster family – including my 4-legged canine sibling (who I’m mostly submissive too).   I’d love to be part of an active family – maybe a jogger or hiker or all-around Coloradan at heart.  Like any puppy, I’ll need a family with loving patience who can help me grow up to be a stellar adult canine citizen.  Don’t worry, though, during training, I’ll keep you smiling with my frequent kisses, head tilt, perky ears and white eyelashes on the white side of my perfect lil’ face!!!  I don’t have any experience with a cat so we’d need to arrange a meeting if a feline is part of your family.
 If you’re looking for a young lad who is eager to please and has many years of love to share, I’m the perfect pup for you! Please call *** TODAY and ask for Wyatt! Yeehaw!!

Teddy


Hi! I’m Teddy and “Life in the PAST Lane” describes my path to Paws & Co.!  You see, I’m a 40-lb, Chow mix who was rescued as a stray in Burlington, Colorado (where their Museum motto is “Life in the PAST Lane”).  I got so tired of hearing about the PAST so I hitched a ride to my FUTURE: first stop – my amazing foster family in Denver!
I’m one bright dude – figuring out how to use a doggie door in less than 60 seconds by watching my canine-foster-sibling.  I’m adjusting to my FUTURE life indoors and I thoroughly enjoy snuggling, getting brushed (I’ll lay submissively while you brush my beautiful fur), sleeping on a dog bed next to my foster parents and romping with all dogs I’ve met! I even enjoy meeting new pup pals when I’m out & about on a leash!  In addition to canine siblings, my FUTURE could even include children as I’ve met several and have been on my best behavior!  I have yet to meet a feline friend so if a cat is part of your family, we’d need to meet before deciding whether we could be FUTURE roomies.
If your FUTURE includes a friendly, loving and (ah-hem) handsome 4-legged family member, please hurry up and call *** and ask for Teddy!

Austin


Tush? Bottom? Buttocks? Backside? Whatever you humans call that part of my anatomy, I’ve got an amazing one and I love to wiggle it!  I’m Austin, a 1 year-old, 25-lb wire-haired terrior with a lifetime of love & tush-wiggles waiting just for you!  Although no one is exactly sure how I spent my first year of life, I consider myself quite a lucky guy to have ended up actively searching for my Forever Family through Paws & Co.  Since arriving with my foster family, I’ve been busy playing with my squeaky toys, showing off how smart I am (I am potty-trained & quickly learned how to use a doggie door) and demonstrating just how much I love humans (including kids!) and other pups.  I’ve yet to have a witnessed interaction with a cat so, if you have a feline friend in your family, we’ll need a supervised visit to see how we get along.  
While playing with humans & dogs is definitely my favorite pastime, I love to cuddle up with humans and doze the night away (I try really hard to stay still so we can all sleep peacefully!)  And, as if I haven’t given enough reasons why I’m your perfect canine companion, I’m also hypoallergenic!! 
So, if you’re dreaming of an attractive, young, active, eager, smart pup with a hypoallergenic, wiggly tush, I'm the man for you!  Please call *** and ask for Austin!
